The success of BAV in bicuspid aortic valve stenosis in younger patients was approximately 85%. Although 10% of patients developed re-stenosis and required surgical intervention, the majority did well during the follow up period. It was concluded that BAV is a viable option in adolescents and young children with bicuspid aortic valve without severe calcification.
